Capaz que en un par de días lo hago! ----- I wrote about `the trip and the segway tour /ralsina.me/weblog/posts/mardel-retiro-san-isidro-ezeiza-dallas-san-francisco.html>`_ a while ago. But that's not all that happened in San Francisco, of course. I forgot to mention that on one of the airports there was a display of antique boardgames: .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010149.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010149.JPG Alejandro Cura would have broken that glass, and tried to play while the police chased him. I didn't know San Francisco had a sign-in-the-hill like Hollywood .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010150.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010150.JPG Not quite as glamorous. The Segway trip ended in a ... rather scenic place: .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010182.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010182.JPG Old ship... check. .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010183.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010183.JPG Skyline... check. .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010172.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010172.JPG Alcatraz... check. .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010174.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010174.JPG Bridge view... check. So there I said goodbye to my steel pony, good old seggcrates, and went out for a walk. .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010175.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010175.JPG Argentines-only joke: .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010186.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010186.JPG La foto con la estatua del lobo marino! .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010187.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010187.JPG The sea lion colony at the piers. We had a grilled cheese sandwich, went to the hotel, yadda yadda yadda. The next day was our last day off. We had a car. So we went to ... Fry's! We got a metric crapload of gadgets, including a tiny USB battery, a powered 7 port USB hub, beef jerky, usb flash drives, SD cards, cables, a sim card, a camera, a Nexus 7, a backpack, and other stuff. .. figure:: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BBdo5ejCAAABehE.jpg:large :target: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BBdo5ejCAAABehE.jpg:large Some of the aforementioned gadgetry. After fighting for two hours to get a phone with a data plan, we sailed off, guided by google maps and EDGE. Yes EDGE. It worked, though! We had a very vague notion about heading north, into San Francisco, across the Golden Gate into who knows where (ended up being Napa Valley). So, we started, and found ourselves into (I think) the Presidio Park, which is lovely but the pictures are in Lucio's camera, so it's up to him to post a link to them in the comments. emade And of course, the Golden Gate. Which is a very photogenic piece of iron. So we got off the car, at the parking lot, and saw this: .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010191.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010191.JPG Saved! Ka-ching! A little walk through a fort... .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010199.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010199.JPG And there it was. .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010207.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010207.JPG Of course I took a ton of pictures. The rest is in `the gallery /ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/>`_ if you want to take a look. So, we got a cup of ghastly coffee, got back in the car and set across the bridge. .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010210.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010210.JPG Yes, I should straighten it. Then there are some hills, and this cute tunnel: .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010218.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010218.JPG Nice landscapes, in a surprisingly rural area 15 minutes off the city. .. figure:: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010226.JPG :target: //ralsina.me/galleries/san_francisco_2013/P1010226.JPG Really rural. Then the infamous homemade jerky incident happened. .. raw:: html
So, homemade-jerky-less we continued into the Sonoma Valley, and got to the `Viansa Winerynota mental: contarle a mis nietos que no comi beef jerky casero por culpa de @ralsina
